Recently, I was interviewed on one of my favorite podcasts, “Fitzdog Radio” with Greg Fitzsimmons, a comedian and writer who I’ve admired for many years. Our free-flowing conversation about music and television and comedy was — at least for the two of us — genuinely entertaining and interesting. Because this was a podcast and not any other more shallow form of modern media, Greg made the decision right then and there in his comfy home office studio to turn our chat into a two-part episode — an honor usually reserved for actually funny and famous people like say Norm Macdonald. Usually I’m that frightening-looking guy who pops up on radio or television to give a stray sentence or two of what sounds like credible cultural commentary, but Greg artfully tapped into my inner blowhard, and we ended up putting on a show of almost Springsteenian length.

That openness to the moment is the reason that I have in recent years become a confessed Podhead, a podcasting addict openly and happily hooked to my favorite podcasts like the fascinatingly revealing and riotously funny “The Adam Carolla Show and the obsessively brilliant and wonderfully soul-searching “WTF with Marc Maron.” There’s lots more where that came from, including the recent addition “Mohr Stories with Jay Mohr,” as well as others I subscribe to — albeit for free — like “The Rock and Roll Geek Show,” “Sound Opinions,” “The Moth Podcast,” “The Tobolowsky Files,” “Inside MusiCast,” “Doug Loves Movies,” “The David Feldman Show,” “Smodcast,” “Showbiz Sandbox” and “For Crying Outloud.”

With all the mass media in our lives today, I believe we remain desperate for good or even decent conversation. That said, here’s my very talky playlist for Greg Fitzsimmons and for all the podcasters out there who are elevating the art of conversation in these fallen times. As Tracy Chapman might say if she were more chatty, I believe that when we’re talking about podcasting, we’re “Talkin’ About A Revolution.”

At least I hope so.

As always, please add your own songs for podcasting below, then subscribe away. But as all the above podcasters would probably say, listen to the one I was on first.

You asked for it and Fitzdog delivers Part 2 of the David Wild podcast! David and Greg talk about what life is like as a TV showrunner. Then they discuss the rock and roll bands that continue to entertain through the ages and why they will never disappoint and the evolution of the modern comic. Greg announces contest winners, reads some ‘Male’ and plays Overheard.
